Product Description

Captain Jonathan Archer and the crew of the Starship Enterprise find their way forward blocked by a mysterious alien vessel, piloted by a race they will soon come to know as the Antianna. Unable to decipher the alien ship's transmissions, unwilling to risk a battle, Enterprise is forced to veer from its planned course. Almost immediately, they find themselves in the heart of space ruled by the Thelasian Trading Confederacy, who have also had dealings with the Antianna. The Thelasian leader, Governor Maxim Sen, is in fact in the middle of organising a war against the Antianna, to eliminate the threat they pose to the Confederacy's trading routes. Archer suspects Sen has other motives as well. He also suspects that there is a reason for the Antianna's seemingly hostile posture. But, with the assembled races of an entire sector against him, he needs more than just suspicions. He needs facts. And, only one woman can give them to him: Ensign Hoshi Sato. If she can translate the Antianna language, peace may just be possible. If not, war - a devastating sector-wide war - will soon result.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, 28 May 2006

By	Mr. D. M. Cannon "dcanon6" (Scotland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book fills in a big space which is missed out in series 4 of Enterprise. It revolves around hoshi having to translate signals. Which is no easy task. We found out about history in space long before star-fleet was there. Its well worth reading if you are a fan of enterprise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suprisingly good!, 12 Nov 2008

By	Lurker "stephen19261" (UK) - See all my reviews

Ok, so i have bought Enterprise Novels before, like The Good That Men Do, and the last full measure and while the writing was good the storys seemed mediocor to me. Now upon reading Rosetta i was pleasently suprised at how involved in the story i got and i think it harkes back to what Star Trek has always been about. It has some problems, lik overused Cliche's of trek but its still a good book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fairly good "Star Trek: Enterprise" novel, 25 Feb 2007

By	Marshall Lord (Whitehaven, UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This story is set in the "Star Trek" universe during the period of Archer's "Enterprise." To be precise it is set between 27th December 2254 while the Orion women were passengers on the Enterprise as described in "Bound," and January 19th 2255 when the events of "Demons" begin.

As the title and cover indicate, the most important character in the book is Ensign Hoshi Sato, and her work translating alien languages is central to the story.

The book starts with a strange and very powerful alien race blocking trade routes in defence of what they appear to regard as their territory. Both Enterprise and various other star nations attempt unsuccessfully to communicate with them. Can Archer, Hoshi and the Enterprise prevent the situation spiralling down to a devastating war ?

Not everyone will like this book - a few of the plot devices have been over used in the series and are a bit tired - but I thought it was one of the better Star Trek Universe books that I have read.
